I've had the same issue repeatedly with 6 5120s. Some reboot(panic) some
just show the error with fmdump. In one case, SUN issued me a T-Patch, half
of the other issues, Sun has replaced the Motherboard. The other cases, I
was just told to clear the error with 'fmadm repaired'. SUN does not see a
pattern yet?!?
Anyway, I have a case opened up right now with my latest panic. I will let
you know if they come up with something different.
Have you opened a case?

You need to make sure that you have the latest firmware updates (the
latest one came out on December 24th - 139439-07
<http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/advsearch.do?collec tion=PATCH&type=collections&queryKey5=139439&toDocument=yes> ). I have seen random hardware
errors with the original firmware that came installed our servers.
Also, you may want to move the card to another PCIe slot.
